you have to be a little bit crazy to survive

This may have started out as a video game but before long it was "real" and I was the player character, a female soldier with extensive firearms and combat training. I'm not entirely sure where the storyline was set, but my closest guess is post-apocalyptic Russia.

Sadly I don't remember much of it anymore, but I do remember progressing through stages where I had to explore and shoot my way towards a key location. One major problem was that something would happen that affected most people anywhere over a huge range of area at the same instant, and cause us to pass out. There were other operatives in the area, a few allies and a lot of enemies.

So basically, when the blackouts hit, sometimes my progress was reset a ways back, because someone who wasn't susceptible to the knockout had moved me (gee thanks). One time when I was getting somewhere important, a Russian female soldier or special operative captured me when I passed out. The dream continued to show me what was going on, in that the woman gave me an injection of some sort and was trying to examine me for signs of some kind of contamination.

I woke up and grabbed a pen, pointing it towards her threateningly while backing away. I found scissors, a much more useful weapon, but by then she was telling me to calm down and that she wasn't interested in a) killing me or b) dying, and could I just knock it off, thanks? I think I left that situation relatively peacefully, I only vaguely remember moving on from that point.

Finally I made it to the target location, a really wide, flat rooftop made of silver metal with some variation in elevation between sections. This place had something to do with the thing that was making almost everyone pass out. I was looking for clues as to what it was and if it was possible to turn it off so it would stop doing that. It started going off every few minutes, but now I would wake up again right after being knocked out, to the point that I was almost making it through the bursts.

(One of my real-life online friend's original characters) Kouri was also involved in the search, along with (my original character) Aster, and while I don't think I was friends with them I knew they could be trusted. Kouri I think was managing not to get knocked out at all, but Aster was far too weak and passed out every time. We were trying to spread out to cover more ground and figure out how to turn the damned thing off, and would randomly pass each other because we weren't having much luck.

tirsden: I had a vaguely interesting if badly-logic-broken dream... I was a teenage girl character and some guy was chasing me through a warehouse. I thiiink he was a security guard or possibly cop/FBI O.o

tirsden: I climbed up into the ceiling which was somewhat finished (aka I couldn't be seen from below) but he followed me. I made it out of the building first and was running off and I could see movie-style he was gonna shoot me (...in the back. guess he was serious about not letting me go O.o;; ) and I'm all like "well I totally just changed into a bulletproof vest while he couldn't see me as I left the building" ...logic, what is this? who needs it. XD

tirsden: so he shot once and I kept running, and he shot again and I still kept running, and by that time it was too late for him to try and shoot my legs cuz I was too far away XD

tirsden: and that's more or less where that ended cuz shit got even weirder after that

Current Mood:lolwhut

Current Music:Lindsey Stirling and Pentatonix - Radioactive (Cover)... stuck in my head

All I remember now from this dream is being on top of a very tall skyscraper. It was daytime and there were other buildings around, but it seemed very open for a big city. I was so afraid of being that high up that I was literally crawling along the skyscraper roof/terrace (that was mostly just flat beige concrete and sometimes there was a swimming pool, sometimes not). Sometimes I would just huddle and basically try to hold on to the surface of the flat roof via gravity. It really did feel like there was danger of falling, not just a fear of heights gone nuts.

There was someone else on the roof, I believe I was up there to try and talk to him (almost in a video game sense... find the next guy for the quest sorta thing). He was sitting in a beach chair sort of thing, and he was relaxing on the far side of the roof. He didn't seem worried at all.

I do believe I made it to him but the rest is fuzzy until I was going back down to the ground by taking inner stairs inside the building, most of which seemed to be hollowed out and in bad shape. There was someone else there... maybe the guy from the roof? Really not sure. Logic got so badly muddled by that point that I've forgotten the rest.
